- Celebrate human creativity in the fields of aviation, history, science, technology.
We achieve this by:
- Curating Virtual Museum Exhibits

Curating Virtual Museum Exhibits
The Virtual Museum Exhibits are accessed by the buttons at the top of each page: Software | Hardware | People | Organisations | Media and via the search function.

| From this... (Flight Simulator 1) | to that (Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004) in just 20 years! |
Creating Videos
In this 60 second video (made in 2006) I introduce you to the spectacle and drama of flight simulation.
Soundtrack: "MiGMan Fanfare" composed by Peter Inglis.

Exhibit: MiGMan's tips for Flight Sim beginners
Flight sims can be pretty darned confusing for folks. I remember it took me years to be able to land in the things! I manage it now - most of the time anyway...

And those controllers - what are all the buttons for? What do they do?
About me
Hi, my name is Peter Inglis, aka "MiGMan".
More than 25 years ago I created the Flight Sim Museum, creating virtual museum exhibits and continue overseeing it's growth.
During that time I've seen many incredible changes in software environments, hardware platforms and communication speed and breadth brought about by the internet.
Teaching | Performing | Curating
When I'm not teaching Masterwork painting in the Australian outback, I'll be playing 400 years of Western Music, writing books or curating the Museum.
Thanks for visiting!
Peter "MiGMan" Inglis
